Skullgirls Moves, Characters, Combos and Strategy Guides

Can't wait to see the SkullGirls section grow with the DLC characters. Hopefully it does well, so we can get them.

i need play its game

yes!!! now this is what im talking about skullgirls FTW!!!

This is nice. All we need now is a combo video,hahaha.

This is really cool! Thanks :)

Oh ya! Skullgirls making a move on Eventhubs. Glad to see it.

EVERYONE SPAM YOUR FAVORITE TOURNEY PLAYER ABOUT SKULLGIRLS. LETS GET THIS GAME A COMMUNITY.

Thanks for supporting this game, EHubs.

I can't wait for DLC characters! Fingers will always be crossed for Eliza, Venus Lovelace, and Deep Violet! Even Mrs. Victoria would be awesome. Her Level 3 Blockbuster could be turning into Deep Violet momentarily.

For whoever made this, Blockbusters(Supers) require you to press all three P or K to activate.

@10 (me): i'm totally wrong, disregard that idiocy.

so far i would have to say ms. fortune is cheap and most likely the 2nd best character in the game with valentine being the best.

Valentine has huge crazy combos, and has the most supers in the game with two level 1, one level 2, one 3, and one level 5.

Ms. Fortune also has some crazy long combos but what makes her so cheap is that she can take off her head and then turtle while her head comes towards u, her head does take damage but u cant kill her by hitting her head, her head has a really small hit box so its hard to hit and its hard to get it away from u and u can only hit it with low moves since its on the floor, its really hard to combo and while trying to combo it ms. fortune can run up to u and counter, and the cheapest thing about her is that she can grab full screen away with her head and the animation is long enough for ms. fortune to actually run at u from full screen away and land one of those huge combos on u and can grab in the middle of combos and pick u up off the ground with that grab.

also to add to the last post i actually do mean grab in the middle of her combos, im not talking about resets.

Does anyone think that Double's dash is very powerful?

Able to go behind characters and easily avoiding attacks?

Using it, I can pretty much destroy Peacock for free.

Though if any DLC characters, I want to see Brain Drain.

Where are you all getting these dlc names from? Is this game based off of something else like a cartoon? I really haven't been following it.

@kirbykirbykirby: All of the characters in the game are from various sketches and drawings Alex Ahad (the character designer) has made from the past 10 or so years. They plan to release as many of the other characters as DLC as they can.

Here are a few of the other designs:

Squigly: http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_s...
Umbrella: http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_s...
Annie: http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_s...
Corkscrew: http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_s...
No Evil: http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_s...
Venus: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/images/7/70...
Panzerfaust: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/images/6/61...
Black Dahlia: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Skullgirls/...

etc.

@12
LOL, "valentine's the best because she has the most supers"
so bad. I personally think valentine is terrible.
Seems like ms fortune, double and possibly peacock depending how strong zoning is, will be the best.. and maybe cerebella as a runner up

it also seems painwheel is pretty damn good but she's one of those characters that nobody will use until one person picks her up and rapes in a tournament or something... then everyone will use her

but i'm still convinced nadia is likely number 1

sorry, didn't mean to offend if i did, that sounded rude.
Tis only my opinion

black dahlia looks amazing

i await DLC Brain Drain, he looks sooooo slick. then i can have Painwheel/BrainDrain/Filia~

@yoyocheese thanks for the links. Interesting character designs. I just bought the game and just waiting for me to actually have time to play it. I sure did have a lot of fun with the demo trying to do some combos.

that sucks that there isnt a move list in the game, but theres a move list android app on the android market. this game is so awesome! i hope there's side tournaments at EVO

You're all wrong, Cerebella, Valentine, and Double are all cheap. Cerebella and Valentine are broken actually.

@22

Ha...haha....lmfao, the only thing that's potentially agreeable there is that Double is VERY good. Cerebella and valentine are definitely not broken.

No one is "cheap" learn the matchup while improving your own gameplay. lol "broken" does not exist in this game.. Sf x tekken or UMVC3 would make you salty as hell then since they are more closer games in terms of what you described.

Desk has already showcased some pretty ridiculous combos. The only thing I don't like is that Australia isn't a region for online play -_-;;

Desk did show some combos but they are really situational, need to have the right amount of meter,corner, and of course easier to do to dummy ai then a human with semi-common sense during competitive gameplay. So far nothing "broken" in actual tourney gameplay and the initial 8 characters are being used with nice variety.

Anyway, update and dlc characters soon ^-^ peacemillion can eat his own sh1t

@halos she cant turtle if the head hits yu she cant combo full screen. and the command grab combo is getting taken out not like yu can do it any way. as far as fwd hp and command grab special just block scrub she has recoil on her head where she cant do a move and the head is surprisingly easy to hit. shes like carl i think she is numbah two or three but lacks defensive options and needs exucution and timing to be played efficiently.valentiine is terrible your just losing to these characters and are salty.EVERY CHARACTER IN THIS GAME IS GOOD. one more thing doing command grab full screen and trying to run up and combo wont work the grab only lasts for so long just block. people dont block anymore then when they lose they cry on here. the only thing your right about is she is top 3 but like carl and viper arent easy to place with.

When are the DLCs coming out?

#29

They never said the date except that the first batch is being worked on, only date given was that game releases to PSN EU/AUS on May 2nd

Do you guys need someone to help write character guides?

#33
Yea could you make one of valentine and cerebella?

Really want those DLC characters.

Sooooo.. when is that patch coming out? Next year?

I guess I'm the only person who actually plays Painwheel. Meh.

Is it true that the PS3 version has better graphics, gameplay, and has patches while the Xbox 360 version (which I have and show no changes since I got it) doesnt?

#39 All I know is that Microsoft screwed up with the patch and it is delayed for now. It will come out eventually and then there shouldn't be any differences between both versions.

I'd like to see Skullgirls vs. Street Fighter, with R. Mika having a spot in there.

Ok, I got a ps3 soon after that I bought Skullgirls and it truly is better on PS3 I first bought it on Xbox 360 while I first heard of it.

Where do we vote for characters? Is the decision even in our hands?

is marie unlock able???
